windsong is here
moonlight dances with naughty clouds
my hair is taken by this late hour
welcoming autumn forces
leaves sway
unwise and happy
as well as me

Awareness of God's Love going with you, or me is what needs our acknowledging. In today's Heaven Letter, God says , "you have the sparkling of the stars in the night sky, now, who can possibly describe how powerfully they serve you?" and "Where is My Love NOT? Only in your awareness may My Love not be. Only in your awareness is My Love an interim thing!" For He wants us to remember His Love Is Constant. You're an inspiration for all of us with these poems and your musings are a delight, too. Dear Ivan,
